About Veterinary Diagnostic Centers

Inside a Veterinary Diagnostic Centers locationwhere the scans happen

Veterinary Diagnostic Centers (VDC) was founded to improve access to advanced diagnostic imaging and specialist consultation for pets and the veterinarians who care for them. After hearing countless stories from pet owners struggling to obtain timely appointments with specialists, Drs. Jeff and Katie Bloomberg developed a solution that combines advanced imaging technology, telehealth connectivity, and a patient-centered experience.

VDC operates as an outpatient veterinary imaging center, working closely with referring veterinarians and board-certified specialists in internal medicine, cardiology, and radiology. Our services include diagnostic ultrasound, echocardiography, electrocardiography (ECG), Holter monitoring, video capsule endoscopy, diagnostic radiography, and ultrasound-guided sample collection, depending on location. What makes VDC unique is our collaborative approach. We do not replace your primary veterinarian—instead, we provide advanced diagnostic information and specialist insights that help your veterinarian develop the most appropriate treatment plan for your pet. We are also committed to creating a better experience for pets and their families. Through our Fear Free philosophy, comfortable outpatient setting, and efficient appointment process, we strive to reduce stress while delivering timely, high-quality diagnostic answers. With convenient locations in Chicago, Schaumburg, Orland Park, and Crown Point, Veterinary Diagnostic Centers is redefining the veterinary ultrasound experience by making advanced diagnostics more accessible, efficient, and compassionate.
